CVE-2026-65835: Capsule has an incomplete fix of CVE-2026-22872: TenantResource RawItems and Generators still allow cluster-scoped resource creation (cross-tenant privilege escalation)

July 31, 2026

CVE-2026-22872 (GHSA-qjjm-7j9w-pw72) reported that a Tenant Owner could create cluster-scoped resources (e.g. ClusterRole, ValidatingWebhookConfiguration) through a TenantResource, because the controller applies them with its cluster-admin ServiceAccount and SetNamespace is ineffective for cluster-scoped kinds. The v0.13.0 fix added a cluster-scope rejection guard, but only on the NamespacedItems selection path (ResourceReference.LoadResources -> IsNamespacedGVK, error "cluster-scoped kind ... is not allowed"). The RawItems create path — the exact vector the original advisory named — and the Generators path were not given this guard. The vulnerability therefore persists in all releases v0.13.0 through v0.13.7 and on trunk HEAD (8d89d6865d).
